Guess What? It is 2008--- and the links still do not work!

This should either get fixed -- permanently, or be removed as a sticky--
permanently!

EagleTG · 06-09-2008, 03:31 PM

I've hosted some info I had stored away for the 1996 model over on my site:
http://togeo.com/togeo/gallery/main.php?g2_itemId=295

Unsure if this helps anyone. If the data is out there (I honestly haven't looked), I'd be glad to host the rest. Somebody PM me or something.

I just found a mirror of the LMC Truck VIN decoding sheet. Decided to pop that up on my site, too... Here's the link:
